US Air Force Lt. Col. Martha McSally, the Air Force's highest ranking female fighter pilot, is suing the Defense Department in federal court over restrictions on servicewomen stationed in Saudi Arabia that require them to wear head-to-toe robes when not on base, and not to leave base without a man. McSally, 35, is used to tough fighting - she's one of the US's first female fighter pilots, and during the Gulf War she became the first woman in US history to fly a fighter jet in combat. Her lawsuit claims that the restrictions in Saudi Arabia discriminate against female military personnel and violate their religious freedom by forcing them to adopt religious customs that are not their own. Furthermore, servicewomen are the only US federal employees in Saudi Arabia who are required to abide by these customs.Female Fighter Pilot Sues Over Saudi Restrictions, Her Combat Boots Don't Match The Required Robes
